Planning application

4 Cambridge Park Twickenham TW1 2PF

Refused Richmond upon Thames 21/T0544/TPO Works to Trees Under TPO

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

Hawthorn tree - A1 - fell because of excessive shading, low amenity value and blocking potential extension and renovation of the property. Replant with another tree (variety TBC) at the back of the garden. Judas tree - A2 - possibly fell because of low amenity value and blocking potential extension and renovation of the property. We would definitely like to fell tree A1, but we may not need to fell tree A2, so please consider the two applications separately (i.e. if felling A1 would be permitted but not A2, please do not reject the entire application).

As published by the council, reference 21/T0544/TPO
